Date: July 31st - August 1st, 2010 GM: Devin Parker, Joanna Slusser, Michael Slusser, and Jen Groninger In-game Location: Kyrrathis (Halgudar), near the Badlands. OOG Location: Coon Creek Group Campsite, Angelus Oaks, CA.
Plots:
The PCs are beset by a group of Lindoran soldiers who have turned to banditry. They rescue the deserters' captive, Ivor Kossa, and learn that he is the former Regent of Raesa in Lindora; House Urth has a price on his head. They find their way to a ruined inn, The Fall of Empires, which has been used by Lindoran refugees as a kind of stopping-over point into Kyrrathis/Halgudar. A group of refugees are trapped in the inn - those who wander off vanish without a trace, and the "mysterious Elves" who come to aid them periodically warn them against the dangers of the Badlands. The Lindorans' Loremaster erected what they believe to be magikal protections over the inn, and he had planned to make talismans that would though the only creatures these folk rituals protect against are the Dark Fey who infest the region. Their Loremaster spoke of creating talismans that would protect individuals from harm, but before he could disclose the details of their creation, he also vanished.
While the Elves come and go seemingly at random, the Lindorans also have a one-armed Scout who knows the area better than the rest and forages for their needs. He arrives with food stolen from the bandits' campsite, and the Lindorans share their good fortune with the PCs, filling their empty bellies.
A Dwarf arrives from out of the Badlands, terribly wounded by her two-week journey, and insists that she is to meet with one of the Warders, Archim Anadrielas. The PCs heal her as best they can and bring her back to the inn.

Synopsis / Invite:
United by the mysterious directives of Auberick, Lord of the Fey, a fellowship has formed to travel to the conquered land of Halgudar - or Kyrrathis, as Rynith names their new territory. The company's goal: to reach the southern borders of the Badlands and determine the fate of three missing Warders - those appointed by Auberick to keep the warped magiks of that gods-blighted land from consuming all of Xaria.
Meanwhile, the Church of the Mother and the Order of Veldron have finally received official word from Xain: Rynith will allow their mission of mercy to the beleaguered Lindorans to move into Kyrrathis, so long as they do not interfere with the activities of the Rynith Guard or pass beyond the borders of Rynith. The missionaries depart, preparing to face whatever horrors have been raised by the necromancers of House Urth...
